January 30, 2026, 12:39 PM EST. The U.S. dollar index rose 0.53% following President Trump's nomination of Kevin Warsh as Federal Reserve Chair. Warsh, known for his hawkish stance on inflation, bolstered dollar gains alongside stronger-than-expected U.S. December producer prices and January Chicago PMI data. These indicators suggest potential tightening of Fed policy. Meanwhile, a tentative U.S. government funding deal with Senate Democrats helped ease political tensions. Despite this, Fed Governor Christopher Waller's dovish comments hinted at possible future easing, creating mixed signals. The euro weakened 0.64% amid the dollar's rally, despite robust Eurozone economic data. Markets price in a low chance of rate cuts soon, but anticipate easing in 2026. Precious metals prices dropped sharply as the dollar gained, reflecting investor concern over higher rates and inflation risks.
